I see they are selling adapters now, for USB to network cables. (Cat5?)

I guess the distance depends on the USB speed and the quality of your cable..

I also understand you can link a bunch of those little USB hubs down a line
of regular short USB cables..

Maybe I'll get to drag an old junker PC (eyesore) into the living room and
take some data for a few weeks after the holidays.
And then forget about using 'FootPrints''.. $49 basically wasted.

I was just greedy, when all I really need is an accurate wattage alarm.
Having the ability to read the unit and run a voltage log would have been nice.
